Postel (UCLA-NMC) +NIC #13281 12-DEC-72 + + + + Character Generator Process + + + +I hereby propose that there be a standard process implemented on +whatever hosts desire which generates character data with out any +regard to input. In some sense the process is the converse of the +discard process [RFC 348]. Many hosts have an existing terminal +testing program [e.g. TTYTST] which would suit this function +adequately. + +This Character Generator process would listen for a request for +connection and execute the Initial Connection Protocol (ICP) as +specified in NIC 7104 the "Current Network Protocols" notebook. Upon +completion of the ICP the Character Generator process would begin to +send characters into the network as buffer space is made available . +The Character Generator process is terminated by closing the +connections. + + + + + + + + + [ This RFC was put into machine readable form for entry ] + [ into the online RFC archives by BBN Corp. under the ] + [ direction of Alex McKenzie. 1/97 ] + + + + + + + + + + + + + + [Page 1] + |
